Knothole
"Ryan!" Sonic shouted.
Ryan's GUNDAM exploded sending a shockwave knocking Sonic's GUNDAM down.
"RYAN!!!!! NOOOOOOOOO!"
Sonic awoke in a cold sweat, panting and trying to catch his breath.
"Dude, it's been five days and I'm still having nightmares about that day."
Sonic looked at his clock and saw that it was 3 o'clock.
"Man, I'm never going to get back to sleep. Might as well take a walk around."
Sonic got up, put his shoes on, and walked outside.
As he went, he unbeknownenstly started walking towards the graveyard.
"Huh? Well, since I'm here I might as well check on Ryan."
Sonic walked slowly through the graveyard, past tombstones on those who had gone on before.
As he neared Ryan's tombstone, Sonic noticed a figure tending to it.
"What? Who could that be?" Sonic whispered to himself.
The figure turned towards him and showed a pair of familiar red eyes.
"Metal?!"
Upon seeing it was only Sonic, Metal changed his eyes from the scary red to a calmer green.
Sonic walked over to Metal to see what was up.
"Metal, what are you doing out here so late?"
"I could ask you the same thing."
"Okay, you got me there, but what are you doing and how can you change your eye color like that?"
"Well, the eye is thanks in part to Ryan. He figured that the red is just a bit to creepy."
"I agree to that. Having green eyes makes you look less menacing." Sonic replied.
"Anyway," Metal continued, "I feel I owe it to Ryan to try and pay my respects this way. After he
went and gave me a second chance, I feel it is the least I can do. Plus, at this time I can come
here and not draw attention, seeing that most of the populace still don't trust me too much. So
why are you up?"
"I had another nightmare about that day."
"Oh. I miss him too, you know."
"How can you? You have emotions?"
"Another thing I can thank Ryan for. He managed to create a chip to simulate emotions. He really knew what
to do."
"Yeah, except when it comes to saving himself."
"Hey, he did what he felt was right. He gave his life to save us. There is nothing more noble than that."
"Do you think he could be alive somewhere? I mean we never did find his body."
"Perhaps, even for a human he's pretty tough. But the way that GUNDAM blew, I doubt it."
"Well, I won't give up hope. I know I'll see him again one day. I'll leave you to what you were doing. Good night
Metal."
"Good night, Sonic."
As Sonic left, Metal hovered there looking down at Ryan's grave.
"Where ever he is, I hope he knows he does have friends who miss him." Metal said as he shed what looked like a
tear.

What the hell has happend: Your guess is as good as mine
Ryan came to in a strange white place.
"Whoa, does my head hurt. Where the heck am I?"
A mysterious man appeared and began to speak to Ryan.
"Hello, Ryan."
"Who are you?"
"That is not important." said the mysterious man, "What is important is the choice you must make."
"What do you mean by "choice"?"
"We have determined that your good has given you the chance to win another try at life."
"You mean go back and help my friends?"
"Yes, but the trials are perilous and may prove dangerous. The choice is yours. Return to your previous life or
remain here."
"Hmm, tough choice. Well, I like to live on the edge. Show me what you got."
"As I figured. You remind me of someone from a long time ago. Good luck."
The mysterious man said a strange chant and Ryan disappeared to who knows where.
"Your father would be so proud, Ryan." said the mysterious man.
-------------------------------
Back at Knothole
"Okay you all know why we're here." Sally said to the others, "As we all know, G.U.N. has been weakend ever since
the incident nearly a week ago. If we strike now, we may be able to finish them off."
"Even if Ryan did take down their leader, how do we know that they don't have something hidden?" Tails asked.
"Reconnisance of the base shows that they are in chaos and are no longer the organized military force they once
were. If we strike soon, we may be able to finish G.U.N. off."
"Then it's agreed. Even without the support of Ryan, we should be able to defeat them." Sonic said.
--------------------------------
CMF Headquarters
The P.A. was blaring loudly, "Agents 001 and 002 please report to the control room."
Ryan awoke and was shoke by what looked like a blue hedghog in a suit.
"Sonic?"
"Partner, wake up. HQ is calling us."
"Okay, I'm coming."
Ryan stood up and noticed he was in a suit as well.
"Partner, here's your gun." Sonic said as he tossed Ryan a gold-plated pistol.
Ryan holstered it and followed Sonic to the control room.
"Ah, agents 001 and 002, glad you could join us." said their leader.
"Sorry, Mam. Ryan was sawing wood." Sonic replied.
"That can be forgiving. Now prepare for departure. All the needed info is in this disk." she said tossing a blue
disk to Ryan.
"Now go and good luck."
-------------------------------
Mission 1
Ryan put the disk in his laptop.
"Your mission is to infiltrate the Robotropolis museum. The museum is really a front for the evil Eggares foundation.
Find info on their base and escape. Good luck!"
"Okay, that makes the download." Ryan said. "Ahhh!"
Someone shot the disk from his hand.
"Not so fast." Said a short, pudgy man.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Snivleus and you'll never get this disk. Get them!"
Suddenly, Ryan and Sonic were swarmed by a number of henchmen.
After a few good shot and quick manuevers, they caught up to Snivleus.
"Agent Reid, you will not escape." Snivleus said while pushing a remote control.
The doors on either side of Ryan and Sonic slid down and the vents in the ceiling began pumping gas into the room.
"It's a Gas Attack." Ryan said.
"It's coming from the roof." Sonic said.
Pulling a attachment from their jackets, they put a device on their guns.
"Ah, special weapon devolpment #028, plastic bullets." Ryan said.
"Yeah, whatever. Aim for the vents." Sonic replied.
After a few seconds, the gas vents were plugged and they opened the door.
"Look there he is. Damn, he got away." Ryan shouted.
Going through another door they found a dead end.
"He's over there, Ryan. We can shoot a hook to that clock." Sonic said.
They pulled out Special Weapons development #146 Grappling Hook.
"Careful, Aim, FIRE!"
"Yes!" Ryan shouted as it successfully hooked the clock.
Ryan and Sonic sled down the rope and crashed through the window.
They saw it as a bit suspicious that no one was there.
They entered the main wing and Snivleus was waiting for them.
"You'll need more than this disk to find the satellite."
They began to fill Snivelus full of lead.
Eventually he fell off and pressed his remote control.
"Look out. The statues are booby trapped." Ryan shouted.
After taking out the statues, they turned around and delivered the final blow to Snivleus.
Going over to his corpse, Ryan removed the disk.
"Let's find out what's on this."
--------------------------------
Back on Mobius
"...it looks like Ryan planned pretty well for any problems." Tails commented.
"Yeah, everything except his death." Sonic commented dryly.
"Hey, we never found a body. He may be out there somewhere."
"Whatever. How long till the GUNDAMs are ready to go again?"
"Four days should do it. The design is so intricate I need to be careful to take my time."
"Do you really think you should rebuild it?"
"I know that's what he would want."
--------------------------------
Mission 2
"Your mission is to rescue the brilliant scientist Miles Prowerski. We have a feeling the Eggares foundation may use
him to reprogram the satellite. Find him and rescue him. Good Luck!"
Listening through a bug in Eggares' table, Ryan picked up his conversation.
"Sir, Miles is in the luggage car."
"Good, good. Now keep an eye on him."
Ryan signaled to Sonic, and they made their way to the luggage car.
After taking care of a few guards they set Miles free.
"Who are you guys?" he asked.
"CMF secret agent, Ryan Reid."
"We're here to rescue you." Sonic said.
"Good. Lead the way."
As they made their way through the cars, Eggares agents came from all sides.
When they made it to the top floor of the passenger cars they came to a split.
"Which way, Ryan?"
"I saw the Eggares leader go that way."
"Then we'll go this way." Ryan said.
Going to the last car they climbed out the window and on to the roof.
Dealing with a few snowmobiles, they made it to the last car.
"Okay, shoot the coupling so we can escape."
Ryan and Sonic fired like crazy till the coupling finally popped out.
Back in the private car of Eggares, he was getting the bad news.
"You fool!" he said as he slapped his lackey, "Send for the commander."
The commander hopped in his tank and chased after their train.
"Huh? Sonic, what the heck is that?"
"Whatever it is, it's coming right towards us."
As the tank rolled past, they took a shot at the cockpit when the driver popped out.
As it rolled back, a helicopter came to cover it.
One well place shot from Ryan brought it down, straight into the tank.
"What? That didn't stop him." Ryan said in disbelief as the tank continued its pursuit.
The tank driver came in to close and was killed. His tank crashed into a pole and exploded.
"Where to next?" Sonic asked.
"Maybe Miles can tell us." Ryan answered.
---------------------------------
Mission 3
"Thanks in part to data from Miles, we have found Eggares' headquarters. Locate and destroy his satellite system.
Good Luck!"
"Looks like that's where we want to go." Ryan said as they jumped into a chute.
As they slid down they had to deal with security turrets placed along the chute.
Ryan came to a stop before he hit the end of the chute to avoid detection.
"Sonic, over here." Ryan said, "It's a map. They dock is two floors down."
Making there way down the stairs and halways, they encountered more of Eggares' henchmen.
Reaching the dock they saw the main control room.
"Look, there's Eggares." Ryan said.
Of course, they were attacked at every edge and way they went.
After defeating about a hundred henchmen, they made it to the control room.
"Well, well, well. Welcome. I didn't expect you to make it this far." Eggares said.
"It's over Eggares." Ryan said.
"I don't think so. The satellite can be fired at anywhere in the world...Even the CMF Headquarters in Knothole."
Eggares threw a knife directly at the CMF Headquarters.
"I'll make you pay for interfering. En guarde!"
Eggares had a huge arsenal on his side using his monitor suit.
"Sonic, look out. Get the missles, I'll deal with the launchers." Ryan said.
After taking some damage, Eggares walked over to the wall and took one of the swords.
"Your persistence is admirable. I'll deal you a final blow."
"Ryan, where'd he go?"
"Look, there he is. He must be able to cloak."
After a flash of light, Eggares tried an attack, but they were too fast for him.
Sustaining too much damage, Eggares tried to run.
Ryan and Sonic let him have it and he flew through the conrol room window and onto the sub.
"Oh, no. He's taking the sub. We have to stop him."
"Get your key." Sonic said, opening a panel in the control board.
Inserting their keys, they took control of the satellite.
"Aim up the crosshairs and push fire." Sonic said.
"Steady, steady. NOW!" Ryan shouted.
The satellite charged up and fired, striking Eggares' sub and blowing it up.
"Good, now let's get the hell outta here." Ryan said.
As the island blows, they manage to escape in a powerboat.
Putting on a pair of shades, Sonic asks, "So Ryan, any plans for the holidays?"
"Sorry, Sonic. That's a CONFIDENTIAL MISSION."
Sonic just shook his head.
Ryan then was surronded by a white light and transported from the boat.

"Good night, Sonic."

"Where ever he is, I hope he knows he does have friends who miss him." Metal said as he shed what looked like a
